Coarse-Graining the Data

Logistic Map Examples: Zero-Centered Bins

Here is the time series y2 - y1, y3 - y2, ..., y1000 - y999 generated by successive differences of 1000 iterates of the logistic map with zero-centered bin lines drawn, and the corresponding driven IFS.

We must use differences because the logistic map values yk all lie between 0 and 1, so zero-centered bins will be of no use for the yk.

Here the bin boundaries B1 and B3 are placed one-tenth of the range of difference values below and above 0.
Here the bin boundaries B1 and B3 are placed one-quarter of the range of difference values below and above 0.
